Brilliant shout FLC. CP1 and 2 often held Junior Cup games and even the final on a good few ocassions. Celtic's first ever trophy is in the pic which points to the locality of the team in question and the trophies on show point towards it not being a professional team. The North Eastern Cup, won by Celtic in 1889 and 1890 before we turned wur noses up and didn't take part any more due to bigger and better things. |

I'll burned down in 1904 ye. Survived the fire in 1904 which burned down the original Janefield Stand with damage to the top tier and barrer on top tier different in pre and post 1904 pics. In the pre 1904 pics the barrier is criss crossed, in the post 1904 pics the barrier is plain vertical posts. Hmm so this pic is dated at post 1904. Finally burned to the ground in 1929.

Think it was Parkhead Juniors who won the Scottish in 1903.They also won the Glasgow Junior cup that same season. |

Haud the bus, i'm too busy lookin at the Pavillion and just noticed the stand beside it is the 2 arch stand that replaced the original burned down Janey Stand so this dates the pic post August 1907. |

It was Albert Kidd who scored the goals (not Albert Craig)- If I remember Walter Kidd played for Hearts and it took a few moments to realise it was Dundee's Kidd that had scored. Ps Some great old photo's on here - Personally though a slight reminder to be cheesed off as my father had every Celtic handbook (some great adverts -Irn Bru on sale after the war) which were effectively stolen after he loaned them out for an exhibition. |

My old mans recollection of that game was that we missed chance after chance early on, then when they got their first goal we totally caved in. And yes, Kenny, my all time hero, had a stinker.[/quote] Your dad's recollection is bang-on. We needed to draw that game to stay top of the league and on the road to ten-in-a-row; we were well on top in the first half, despite losing an early goal to a Derek Johnstone header, and I remember Paul Wilson laying on a tap-in for Kenny which he somehow missed...we squandered a hatful of chances, then when the huns went further ahead early in the second half, we collapsed. However it was the following week that really sickened us...we lost 2-3 at home to Motherwell, and that was our goose cooked. Edited by Flynn, 10 Sep 2014, 10:35 PM.

1. We're not sure when the League of the Cross name was dropped. It may have been 1913, when Junior football became professional. Sports played under League of the Cross auspices were strictly amateur. 2. The League Hall was in Hamilton Street, but the entire street was demolished (except for the Hall) and renamed Nethan Street. It was a hardwood flooring warehouse, but that recently relocated. The League Hall was the Ants first pavilion when the club played on a field just south of the Hall between 1904 and 1906. The modern Crossloan Road probably runs over part of that field 3. There were indeed two Moore Parks. The one halfway up Broomloan Road on the west side was originally named the Moorepark Grounds - literally the grounds of an old Georgian mansion. Several Govan teams played there over the years. The Ants took it over when another Junior side Co-operative United went bust in 1906. We got their match-secretary too, a certain Steve Callaghan, who went on to do great things for Celtic. The owners of the park, Harland and Wolff, told us to get out in 1929. We moved to New Moore Park in Helen Street that year, but the "New" tag disappeared very quickly. The Wine Alley scheme was built on top of the old park. 4. Canon McBrearty was an honorary Ant, but the priest who did most to promote the League of the Cross and encouraged sport to be played in the branch was Father Robert Paterson. He had left Govan by the time St Anthony's League of the Cross Football and Athletic Club* was formed, but he retained his connection with the branch. He became a Canon in 1939 at Blantyre St Joseph's. * Initially the club was known as the 'Athletic Club' or 'League Athletic' for the sake of simplicity. The nickname 'the Ants' came later. |
